Speaking of the Ming Dynasty, we think of the dark Jinyi guard and eunuch system, feeling that living in that era is a kind of suffering, in fact, the truth is not like that, because the closest era to us is the Qing Dynasty, so for the former political enemies of the Dynasty, the Qing Rulers have more smear elements, so that our impression of the Ming Dynasty is only dark, in fact, the ming Dynasty people's life is relatively happy, such as the richest man in that dynasty, which is the realm we cannot imagine.
First of all, the ancient large families were very strict about the education of their children, but because of the influence of Cheng Zhu Lixue, the education of girls changed, blindly pursuing three from four virtues, but the richest family is different, Shen Wansan as the first richest man in the Ming Dynasty, the salary of a month to the tutor is 20 taels, we know that the poor Show is only broken, the hard fee of Mr. Private School is very low, 20 two silver that is a sky-high price, from this we can not see, this Shen Wansan, not the general rich ah.
Second, Shen Wansan likes entertainment activities, there is no electricity in ancient times, entertainment activities are limited to theatrical performances and singers and prostitutes singing, the Shen family will move the drama team and the singers to their homes, day and night, bare pig trotters eat more than 30 plates a night, because there are many princes and ministers willing to go to the Shen family to join this hilarity, after all, the royal power and wealth, has always been bound together.
Third, the Shen family is brightly lit day and night, every day just eating is comparable to the palace, the full table of Manhan is just a number, people pay attention to the color and aroma and the owner's preferences, so, the morning dew drops barrel by barrel, bird's nest deer antler like a big white steamed bun, commonly used and common, it is said that the leftovers alone are enough to feed several large pig farms, how much to spend ah. In the splendid Shen family mansion, there are groups of rich and noble people who are drunk on paper and gold.
Fourth, the most worth mentioning is that Shen Wansan actually funded the construction of the Great Wall, and it is two-thirds of the total amount, you know, our current infrastructure projects are all funded by the state, or they are issuing treasury bonds, which will say that Shen Wansan is rich enough to rival the country. Sometimes, the emperor did not allow a more dazzling existence to appear around him, for example, Shen Wansan covered the light of Zhu Yuanzhang, who was the first emperor of our Ming Dynasty, but he was a stingy emperor who put that person to death because people said a bad word about him on the street, and he wanted to leave the title of Ming Jun to future generations. Good fellow, this time the richest man was disgusted to his heart, but there was no way, everyone had money and did not commit crimes.
Moreover, Shen Wansan also often provided hundreds of taels of gold to the soldiers and civilians of the Great Wall free of charge, which won the hearts of the people even more, and it was a matter of certainty that he was richer than Wang Jianlin and Ma Yun, after all, gold and antiques were more valuable.
